How does the
BackCycler® work? |
The BackCycler® is a pump and valve system that gently inflates and deflates
an air pillow behind the small of your back. The BackCycler® keeps you comfortable because it
continuously moves your spine. Back pain is the #1 comfort problem with sitting still too long.
The BackCycler®'s motion keeps you comfortable hour after hour, unlike vibration and massage devices that
can only be used for minutes at a time. The BackCycler® takes the place of constantly changing positions--or support cushions,
or chairs--or of standing up and moving around and stretching to relieve the pain of sitting for too long. This makes
the BackCycler® particularly useful in confined seating situations, such as in cars, planes, buses, trucks, recliners, movie seats,
and office seating. |
| Is there scientific evidence that BackCycler® works better? |
Yes. Besides all the great testimonials from satisfied
customers, we've done several studies on the safety and effectiveness of the BackCycler®, with findings such as:
- An award-winning study funded by the National Institute of Disability and Rehabilitation Research found that the BackCycler®
outperformed other lumbar support devices by 30%.
- X-ray analysis demonstrated that the spinal motion created by the BackCycler® is perfectly within safe, natural
limits.
